RVN Awareness Month continues 🩺💉

Not only are our nurses nursing, they’re also phlebotomists, patient cuddlers, treat negotiators, anaesthetists, dental assistants, radiographers, receptionists, cleaners and occasionally professional wranglers 😅

Safe to say veterinary nursing is the only job with truly limitless titles. 🦸‍♀️

Here are our amazing nurses Chloe and Elise taking bloods from the gorgeous Peppa 🐾💕

This month (and every month) we’re so grateful for everything our RVNs do behind the scenes for your pets.

We’ve gone from sunshine to thunderstorm in true Irish fashion today 😅⛈️☀️

But with warmer temperatures expected again later, it’s still important to help our pets stay cool, hydrated, and safe 🐾

Dogs and cats can overheat much faster than we do,especially older pets, flat-faced breeds, overweight pets, and thick-coated fluffballs who suddenly regret all their life choices in this weather 😅

🧊 Cooling Tips

* Provide plenty of shaded, well-ventilated areas
* Use cooling mats or damp towels for them to lie on
* Freeze water bottles, wrap them in a towel, and place nearby
* Keep curtains closed during peak heat hours
* Brush excess undercoat out (but don’t shave double-coated breeds)
* Avoid walks during the hottest parts of the day (early morning or later evening is best- if at all)

💧 Boost Hydration

* Place multiple fresh water bowls around the house and garden
* Add water to meals for extra hydration
* Offer ice cubes as treats or add them to water bowls
* Cats often prefer moving water,fountains can encourage drinking

🍓 Easy Frozen Treat Idea

🐶 Dog Ice Pops
Blend:

* Water or low-salt chicken stock
* A spoon of plain yogurt
* A few blueberries or strawberries

Freeze in silicone moulds or ice cube trays.

🐱 Cat Version
Freeze small amounts of:

* Tuna water (spring water only, not brine)
* Or diluted low-salt chicken stock

Perfect for a little cooling treat once the sun comes back out 🧊

⚠️ Signs of Heatstroke

* Excessive panting
* Drooling
* Weakness or wobbliness
* Vomiting
* Bright red gums
* Collapse

Heatstroke is an emergency 🚨 contact your vet immediately if you’re worried.

And finally: please don’t leave pets in cars. Even in Ireland, cars heat up frighteningly fast once the sun appears! 🚗 🔥

Thunder in the Cork area now, please check your pets and keep them safe.

When the clinic closes but the superhero shift starts 🦸‍♂️🦆

A member of the public contacted us after spotting ducklings trapped in a garden. Mama Duckling flew off in distress. After work, Ben stepped in, rescued the little gang, and safely reunited them with their mother in a nearby field 💚

Saving ducklings by evening, breaking hearts by morning, our local heartthrob strikes again. Honestly, is there anything this man can’t do? 😂😆

Huge thanks to the member of the public for caring enough to call, and fair play to Ben for making sure this story got the happy ending it deserved 🐥

We are coming to the last week of Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month, and this weekend some of our amazing nurses from Village Vets Cloyne attended the IVNA Conference for continued professional development, learning and upskilling. 🩺✨

They had a wonderful time as you can see from the pictures! 😍

We are incredibly proud of our nurses for constantly striving to learn more and better themselves for the benefit of their patients. Their dedication, compassion and hard work never go unnoticed, and we honestly don’t know what we’d do without them.

Thank you for everything you do, not just this month, but every single day. 💙🐾

☀️🐾 HEATWAVE PET SAFETY REMINDER

☀️🐾 A heatwave is expected over the next few days, and while we might all enjoy the sunshine, the warmer weather can become dangerous for our pets very quickly.

Heatstroke is a genuine emergency and can sadly be fatal if not treated quickly.

Every summer we see pets struggling with heat exhaustion and heatstroke and sadly it can happen far faster than people realise. Dogs especially cannot cool themselves the way humans do, and even a short walk or a warm car can become life-threatening.

Here are a few important reminders to help keep your pets safe during the heat:

💧 Always provide plenty of fresh, cool water
🌳 Make sure pets have access to shade and cool areas indoors
🐶 Walk dogs early morning or late evening only
🖐️ Check pavements before walks, if it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for paws
🚗 NEVER leave pets in cars, even for “just a minute”
🐰 Rabbits, guinea pigs and birds should be kept out of direct sunlight at all times

🚨 Flat-faced breeds, older pets, overweight pets and pets with heart or breathing issues are especially vulnerable in hot weather. 🚨

⚠️ Signs of heatstroke can include:
• Excessive panting
• Drooling
• Weakness or collapse
• Vomiting
• Bright red or pale gums

If you’re worried your pet may be overheating, move them somewhere cool, use cool (not ice cold) water and contact your vet immediately.

And remember, your dog does not need a 5k walk in 25°C heat. They’ll survive missing one. Their paw pads and lungs will thank you. 😅🐾

This Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month, we want to give a huge shoutout to the incredible nursing team here at Cloyne Veterinary Clinic 💙🐾

Hazel, Jacinta, Ben, Chloe and Elise are the backbone of our clinic every single day. Each of them brings their own interests, skills and strengths to the job, from surgical nursing, to inpatient care, client support, diagnostics, anaesthesia and everything in between. But the one thing they all have in common? Their patients always come first.

They are the voices for the animals who can’t tell us what’s wrong. The extra pair of eyes checking on a patient one more time before heading home. The comforting hand for nervous pets and worried owners alike. The people who regularly sacrifice a proper lunch break because a patient needs them more.

This weekend, our nurses are attending the Irish Veterinary Nurses Association conference, spending their own time continuing to learn, grow and better themselves so they can provide the highest standard of care possible to your pets. That dedication deserves recognition.

Veterinary nursing is so much more than cuddling puppies and kittens (although there’s some of that too 🐶🐱). It’s skill, compassion, resilience, advocacy and an enormous amount of heart.

We are unbelievably lucky to have this team. 💙
